The author provides us with an excellent opportunity to compare two outcomes based on the release of state secrets by someone who serves the One Percent ruling class with someone who serves the interest of the rest of us--the 99 Percent.

Of course, this disparity in justice runs throughout the legal system, as well as every other system of this class structured society that pretends to be democratic.
